Athlete quotes following 10/24 Time Trials:

Hannah Dreissigacker:
"It was my first time shooting clean in a race, so I'm really
psyched about that! I'm also just really happy to be done with the trials
races because I was putting a lot of pressure on myself. I was so nervous
before the first race, but today I was able to relax a little bit more which I
think helped with the shooting."

Susan Dunklee: "We come out here
every year and it's a really great opportunity for us to get in some high
altitude training in beautiful weather. I had a great race on Tuesday, I
cleaned and I felt like I had a really good skiing day too. I felt like I could
have been in the top-10 of a World Cup race with that performance. I'm really
excited about the winter ahead."

Sean Doherty: "Camp has gone
really well. It was really smart to take take time to get acclimated to the
altitude before the hard training kicked in, so I was really ready for these
races. The shooting came together, especially today, and it's been awesome
training here with the whole national team."
